I was just curious, with the theme of getting fit, if anyone here has participated in it, or has any intrest in it.
I'm really thinking of starting, and was just curious if anyone else was interested.

Does the name "Misery" sound familiar?
Anyway, I don't think anyone much has had much experience with parkour, but that's just my best guess. I know we use to have a member who got interested in the hobby, but he's not around the site much anymore.
As far as the exercise portion of it is concerned, I'd have to say it's less something you want to use as training as much as you should train for it. Because it's so physically demanding, you can't just expect to mosey through the sport and get fit as you go. It's a dangerous enough sport that you could seriously injure yourself if you lack the physical means to perform some sort of maneuver. Sure, you can start off with a lot of basic moves and things, but it'd be very wise to have a training regimen outside of the activity.
Just my .02, anyway.

yep! Misery was really into it for a while. But that's the only member that I can recall who was into the activity...
